I found a program that should work. It is called oovoo.
If you go to oovoo.com there is a free download. My tech guys said that it was working yesterday, and should be just as good as skype. Just a thought.
oovoo is blocked by our system -- I am not even going to ask. They have already opened a lot of stuff for me and I literally just emailed the IT guy with another huge request. I only have so many favors in reserve and my last email my take them all : )
Tomorrow I have PPT meetings so my schedule is funky. (all times CST) I could do 6:55,7:55, 8:55, 9:55 -- Meetings start on the hour so it would be enough time for a quick test, and there is the o' so slight chance that a meeting might go long--never has, but a chance.
Then anytime between 10:30- 12:30.
I have an account to "book" meetings so I would send you the link via email and it is pretty straight forward to log on.
Thursday I can get the kids from 11:15-12:00CST or 12:00-12:40CST
